I'm pretty new to vaping and I have bought a bit of a job lot of the above, 10 to be precise. LOL well they were a bargain and pretty colours which at the moment i'm loving, so easy to fill, no wicks to mess with changing so thought they would be a good idea as less faff. Wondering if anyone has any experienece of them as my big question is can i wash them out as last week i drained one quite low and it had a burning taste so i just binned it?

Do they look like this badbird? Or do you have a link to what you bought . . .

they are the ones mine look exactly like those, but i have been reading some threads on here and am now a little concerened as my batteries and atomisers have come from ebay, which seems to be a bit of a no no to buy from where e cigs and safety are concerned, so am wondering if my batteries are going to blow up or set my house on fire when on charge.
So i'm now off for a look through the vendors list for a reputable place to buy some new kit. Think i need to start again.

Depends who you bought from on Ebay badbird, athough there is a reason why those clearo's were cheap . . . they're not that good. There's considerably better about. I'd suggest having a look on Myepack's website: myepack.co.uk/Authentic gear at competive prices. But that doesn't guarantee nothing will ever go wrong, whoever you buy from, it's up to us to also be sensible about how we use and charge batteries. Not leaving them charging overnight or unattended is the first precaution.

They are not really designed for washing and cleaning. Top em up keep them topped up with the same or similar flavored liquid and then bin them after a week or two - best if you have a few on the go at the same time it gives the illusion of more longevity! . They may seem cheap at the time but when you consider their short life span and poor quality of flavour production they are not much of a bargain. Iclear 16s which look almost identical are now being sold for under £3.00 and can be washed. The only advantage I've found with CE4s wickless or otherwise is that they can't be unscrewed in the wrong place resulting in a lapful of juice!

You can clean CE4s - see this for instance How well and often it works (and whether it works at all) depends on your juice and on how long you leave it before cleaning. If you can't be bothered with the dry burning, then if you wash them before they get too gunky you could probably get away with just rinsing them out well with hot water and leaving them on a radiator for a couple of days. Perpetua is right though - next time get something better. Changing the heads isn't at all difficult. Easier than cleaning CE4s. And easy to clean the heads too.

A bit of an update, the ce4,s are no more, i have been out today and have bought myself a lovely pink Kanger MT3s and also a T3s and what a differnce it has made they are absolutely brilliant and a different vaping experience all together, although the MT3s seems very large compared to what i am used to i'm sure i will get used to it.

The 'size barrier' as someone else referred to it as, will soon disappear. When I first started vaping over a year ago, I felt incredibly self-conscious holding a 650 eGo battery and CE4+ in my hand in public. This morning I was standing on a beach watching my daughter rowing with her gig team, and puffing away on my Spinner and Protank. Various people walked past casting me a sly glance, and I wasn't at all perturbed about it. I use my Vamo in 198650 mode in public quite regularly, and again have no worries about it. You will quickly get used to the extra length (oo-er, missus!), and in a couple of weeks won't even think about it, trust me!

Well done. The T3S series are good 'uns. The old T3 series were less good.
I have a T3S and need to get it up and running again. (I need some atomizer heads....)

And of course the big plus for these are the fact that you can recoil/wick them yourself to your own specification...it's dead easy and IMO is part of the enjoyment of vaping. Others though are not into "faffing" as they call it and prefer the manufacturers heads.

On the subject of CE clearomisers I must admit I'm confused by the various models, so far I've seen CE4, 4+, 5, 5+ and recently a CE8. I know the CE4 has a wick as you can see it in the pics but after that I'm lost as to what the differences are. I was considering having a go with one as they are a cheap introduction if bought from a reputable vendor but which one to try?? Or maybe just buy an evod instead..

tmgCE4 = basic throw away CE4+, CE5 = basic replaceable heads Sometimes the definition can be blured about this. CE8 higher capacity TCC atty TCC attys tend toward a warmer vape whilst BCC (eg Evod, Protank, Mt3 kanger) are a cooler vape but more flavour ( and before anyone shouts about the Iclear16s, I'm talking single coils here) Have a nose around here: myepack.co.uk/clearomizers.html?p=2hope this helps
